These forty-one projects representing fifty-two artists have each received initial awards of 10,000 dollars. As the projects develop, Creative Capital offers additional funds; projects may receive as much as 50,000 dollars each through the tenure of the multi-year grant.
Creative Capital artists also may participate in the organization’s distinctive Artist Services Program valued at 25,000 dollars per artist. This program offers artists skills-building assistance in areas such as fundraising, networking, marketing, and strategic planning with the goal of advancing both their projects and
their careers.
In all, more than 2.5 million dollars has been committed to this new class of Creative Capital artists.
Since its founding in 1999, Creative Capital has committed more than 12 million dollars in financial support and services to 283 projects representing 350 artists.
